Find Hidden Cookies Folder
Submitted by eugene on Sat, 01/12/2008 - 11:23
If you are trying to get into your cookies folder in Vista and you type in Cookies in the start menu search box it points you to C:\Users\username\cookies. However if you try getting into that folder Vista gives you an "Access Denied" message. This happens because the location Vista points you to is not the real cookies folder. Instructions on how to get to the real cookies folder below...
- Open up Windows Explorer and select Tools > Folder Options in the top menu bar
- Select the View tab
- Check the Show hidden files and folders option
- Uncheck the Hide protected operating system files option
- Now go to C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Cookies and C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Cookies\Low to see your cookies =]
